Francis Joseph A approves HIS Ufe-
mier'sFOxeign Policy.
VIENNA. December 26.-Emperor
Francis Joseph, in q letter which ae--
companied his Christmas gift to Count
Andrassy, says: THIS present is given
in recognition of the hospitality ex-
tended to the Emperor by Count An
Grassy during the military maneuv-us
The gift is generally believed, how
ever, to have political significance,
the opinion being that the Emperor
wished to express his approval of
Count Andrassy's energetic policy. II
is stated that when the Count re-
turned from the Berlin Congress the
Emperor wished to raise him to the
rank of Prince and asked several
Hungarian Ministers to try to induce
him to accept the honor. The Count,
however, refused and declined to ae-
cept an order, so that the Emperor's-
only way to honor the Count was to
send him an autograph letter, which
is the highest Austrian distinction.

revolution, headed by the ex-President
OF Guatemala, Vicente Castano, against
the government of General Barillas
for having proclaimed a dictatorship
on June 10Th, lately suffered most
humiliating defeat. There were two
d safected factions, one working
from the eastern department, the
other from the western. The former
was under the generalship of Castano,
the latter was in charge of several
we'll known military men of that re-
public. In the range OF mountains
near the city OF Gnatamala, a few
days ago, desperate battle was
fought between the federal and revo-
lutionary forces, the latter suffering
almost complete humiliation. The
battle was desperate and sanguinary
from the commencement. 1t lasted
over twoJ1ours, the field being strewn
with dead at its conclusion. Castano
and eight other revolutionary generals
were captured and shot This ends
ono of the most bloody wars the
country has ever seen. The republic
now enjoys O peace.

TARIFF ON wool.
Jno. II. wise 'GaikS on the Sta b.
ieCt,


SAN FRANCISCO, December 26.-The
Examiner will publish tomorrow an
interview with Jno. III. Wise, one Of
the leading wool dealers of this Sec
ton, in which he says that the cause
for the present decline in prices is not
u question of free trade or protective
tariff, but the result of the overpro-
duction in the manufactured goods in
the United States for which there is
no outlet. The stagnation OF the dry
goods business in the East has caused
a reduction in the price of domestic
wool. He thinks that il the tariff
were removed it would not affect the
industry. The competition for home
consumption, which is our only mar
ket now on account Of the tariff, has
caused the overproduction.
